Avantages
The entry-level talent is kind of heart and passionate in their work. Perhaps due to the nature of the projects, most people are there because they truly want to contribute something meaningful.
Inconvénients
I felt taken advantage of and emotionally hurt by top level management in terms of pay, professional development and self-respect. I went in thinking that I would be one of the team, but realized soon that people of color are tokenized. Logically, if you want to obtain buy-in from public agencies and non-profits looking for evaluation services, then the consulting team has to look the part. No question that everyone is talented, but it is clear that physical appearance of employees is a component of the company's pipeline. In the end, it felt like diversity was a selling point and I just another face on a poster. Evidence is that as a consultant you can get severely underpaid in this firm. They do not even offer pay that is just and fair unless you fight for it. But if you have to fight for justice in a firm that stands on a high horse of social and economic justice, where are we in history. I felt wronged by the people that claimed to want to do good.
